Santa Barbara Station
The SILVER SPLENDOR, built in 1956 as Chicago, Burlington & Quincy #4735, has just completed a 12-year restoration.
Did You Know? - Built for the Zephyr fleet of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad by the Budd Co. in 1956, this stainless steel car raced between Chicago and Denver on a daily basis until 1980, including the final nine years under Amtrak ownership. Originally named Silver Buckle, she was part of the last two complete conventional train sets to be ordered new in the pre-Amtrak era, traveling more than 4.5 million miles.
Did we get everything?
